Ethan Chan is an artist working in sculpture, installation and performance art based in Los Angeles & San Diego, CA. Using off-kilter materials including Happy Meal® toys, bubble gum, and sauce packets, his work examines a love for all things kitsch, cookie-cutter, and plastic; and in its transformation, attempts to place itself at the intersection between globalism and Americana.
His work has been featured in exhibitions at the Oceanside Museum of Art, Oceanside, CA; Quint Gallery, La Jolla, CA; THE LINE Contemporary Art, London; and THE ROOM Contemporary Art, Venice, among many others.
He earned his BA in Sculpture & Installation from Point Loma University in San Diego.
